Mallorik Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I thought it was great, but I still want more cinematics like the old ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitalityPrime Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I thought it was great, but I still want more cinematics like the old ones! Yeah, the battle of Alderaan cinematic forever made me a fan of Satele Shan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZirusZero Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 It looked really good. I really wish we could have PvP on that scale or actual lightsabers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadoken Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Yep, here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s46Jim2bChk Dirty pool. Why are they calling this 'new'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuixupu Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Well, I think it was only previously released in Europe at a convention, so I guess it's "newly released". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil_Dave Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Has anyone else noticed that this cosplay trailer just happens to completely misrepresent the game, given that PvP will soon consist mostly of 4v4 warzones? There are no massive battles like the one depicted going on anywhere in the game, and there probably won't ever be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laris_Rai Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 is every one of these crapy live action trailers made by the same people and same director? every single one is the same thing, people running around on the streets, glimpses of weapons and powers then ends with big mass of people and has nothing to do with the game lol I'm sure a bunch of out of shape people sitting in chairs and swilling Red Bull would have worked much better.

Laris_Rai Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 This one seems desperate though. It screams "Please, we need subs !" How? Seriously, how is there anything desperate about this? And hell if you want to go the "normal" advertising route, I have not seen a single mention / advert anywhere of TOR other than the the first few months prior to launch and maybe a month after that. And I see it advertized all the time on the banners at the expat forum I hang out on. So much for that point. But to answer the OP on opinion: -5/10 . "Live action" tends to be stupid, silly, and cheesy..which is what this was. Couldn't take it seriously at all. If you're going to take a pretending to be a Jedi or Sith seriously in any way a look at one's life priorities is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambunctious Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Well, at least it looks like it was cheap to make, and they didn't waste a ton of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuixupu Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Well, at least it looks like it was cheap to make, and they didn't waste a ton of money. As pointed out previously, they made this for Gamescon 2012, before the game went f2p, recycling ftw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShatteredVision Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Pretty lame, actually. How exactly are clips of real people supposed to get me into a game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaverknight Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 WOW, that trailer was SO bad I can barely believe it. Looked more like a promo for Revenge of the Angry Nerds! Nothing epic or inspiring about that piece of trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoshiRaphElan Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I wish there'd been more actual fighting, but the trailer was cool. Was that supposed to be a bounty hunter meeting the Jedi girl in the tunnel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelersWay Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 (edited) I don't think so. Link? At least one year - I remember seeing it on a couple of Internet game sites way back when. One in particular I remember is Gamebreaker TV's The Republic show. WOW, that trailer was SO bad I can barely believe it. Looked more like a promo for Revenge of the Angry Nerds! Nothing epic or inspiring about that piece of trash. I personally found it better than GW2's live action trailer. Probably because I like this game better than GW2.

GalaxyStrong Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 (edited) It's a great video/commercial but, IF YOU DON'T PRODUCE A GOOD PLAN TO ADVERTISE THE VIDEO THEN, IT'S WORTHLESS!!!!! This video needs to get air time on REAL TV. you cant just show the video at your website and youtube and expect lots of new sub's to generate from it. If EA has any brains at all they will buy TV Air-Time (Commercial Slots) and show all the people that never even knew their was a Starwars MMO out on the market, how great this game is (yes, their are people who don't know this awesome game exists). Do it right or don't do it at all. Edited September 13, 2013 by GalaxyStrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to take a pretending to be a Jedi or Sith seriously in any way a look at one's life priorities is in order. That must be it exactly! B/c the "look how cool I am!" gimmick works wonders...I couldn't take the commercial seriously...guess something is wrong with that in your world.

TravelersWay Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 And what about that video felt epic to you? If you thought it was good better sack up and say why so we can tell you why your wrong! I wouldn't say if felt epic to me, it was a fun little trailer. After watching it again, I realized why I like it - and like it better than GW2s. It harkens back to my youth when my brother and I and all our friends would basically do just that - pretend to be Jedi and Sith fighting it out in our backyard. How cool would it have been to actually have been able to do that with real sabers and blasters ... ahh the good ole days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshlaBoga Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Well, shouldn't they always be? Ja, but from 2010 to 2012 there was very very little advertising for SWTOR. WoW had Mr. T and Chuck Norris. SWTOR had... crickets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Droidist Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I thought it was pretty cool. I also liked that unlike some other trailers (hope), they don't have a person who doesn't really exist ability wise in the game. I would still LOVE to have a double bladed saber on my jedi knight lol, or a jedi shadow that can actually use the force like Satele Shan did.
